It was reported that the woman, named Onya Andrew Robbins, had fallen in love with 19-year-old Nadal Meman, a resident of Karachi’s Garden area, via social media. Despite being a mother of two children, she traveled to Karachi on October 11.

The young man, Nadal Meman, was initially willing to marry the US woman, but his family rejected the idea. After spending months in Karachi, her return ticket expired.

Following the expiration of her visit visa, the woman was handed over to airport police by the ASF after attempting to leave Karachi.

An NGO provided her with a return ticket and financial assistance. The woman was also treated at the airport’s emergency clinic for cold and flu symptoms.
